Tonya did say that it was taking them about 12 weeks to process an application--I know this doesn't help.

All that I can say is that I have waited 32 years to get my first Harley (still don't have it yet, I just have the go ahead from the wife (CFO/CEO) for purchase), so, as long as the plastic comes in before the 32 year mark, I should be good.

P.S.
I was wearing my super lucky Dallas Cowboys pajamas when I made this call--if they can't break the spell, then this is some kind of uber-bad-juju. Really, these pajamas prevented the worldwide computer melt down in 2000.

Negative, Ghostrider.

And I was all in 12/21...

The pattern is full. All in 12/28 and they haven't looked at as of 3/4.

Sounds like it is time to take Infoman's advice and call your Local Representative's office.

I know we haven't determined when the clock starts, but my app was done 12/21, and last confirmation email was 12/29.

A whole lotta frustration on some members of this site would be alleviated if you went by business days from the date all correct items have been submitted to RSD.

Then, don't forget if needed there is an up to 180 day provision too.

Personally, with everything the RSD is required to check on each individual applicant I think they are doing a great job in an historically high application period.

I get that "it used to take a lot longer" and "they're really swamped" but for the love of God why wouldn't it be First Come First Served? I'm ok with waiting however long as long as people who came 3 weeks after me aren't bumped to the front of the line. I have no problem seeing those who submit before me be approved but I'm sick and tired of seeing people get approved who submitted in mid-january.

...rant over...

I have yet to see anyone that submitted in January say they received plastic. Most recent I've seen is someone who received confirmation Dec. 29th. Which is my date of confirmation, but I have yet to see a change. Just a little longer man!

Been a few in the 2016 thread with website changes, including one from 1/21/16

Well, I won't waste my time calling in then. Thanks for the info and may your license come quickly.

Well that's funny because I was told my clock started running on 1/11 when my CHL100 was submitted electronically. I submitted my fingerprints on 1/13 with confirmation email 1/15.
